LUNG FORCE Heroes
Eileen L.
I lost my dad from stage 4 melismatic lung cancer in 2012. I remember that day as a bell when my dad from died on 9/14/12 at 10:55 that morning. My sister called from hospice telling that dad is dead and she wanted me and my brother to come to hospice to say our goodbyes to dad. After the funeral my brother and I were both crying because we became orphans because both mom and dad are gone. I'm still dealing with the pain of losing my parents, I'm in counseling to deal with the losses.
